{quote}There is a lot of argumeng going on here as usual as to what Big E said or did not say. What I will say is that it is not me/me or anything else that annoys the majority of tms traders, it is the decrying of the tdi. This thread is about a system using the TDI and studying how it reacts to what price is doing and so is the "heart" of tms and any argument otherwise is pointless. Someone just posted on here that they have removed the TDI - wonderful more power to them - but stop posting on this thread because there are many many threads on...

it is always so easy for you to say things in hindsight and make comments on other members posts.

hindsight is 20:20 vision.

that's what you do here in also in other threads.

Big E started the 5-Method using the 5EMA as direction and to pick the setup candle, after a few months he dropped using the 5EMA but left it on his charts.
so what has the 5-Method become?

he died in Oct 2012.

we moved on from where he left off.

Of course hindsight because that is what your posts are also, there is no getting away from the fact though that on h1 tms that trade would not have been taken. Yes he changed things and if he was still alive probably would have changed something else but if he was going to start ignoring the tdi completely he would have opened a new thread entirely I am sure because that is what he did when he started this one.

You have not been following my post for the past 3 weeks. If you did , then that H1 trade would have been answered.

I wonder why you are this thread when you trade several systems. You run around different thread talking like an expert.

{quote} Read what the post say, (something about mental disorder). Where does it say he is referring to post 283 and where is the words repainting in those two post's or that it is a training chart. You do not like this method and the why BigE traded the TDI. https://www.forexfactory.com/showthr...99#post9627699 Are you really helping members emmanuel? Start your own thread where you can discredit BigE and Trading Made Simple.

@Tekkies,

You are a joke. You cannot read simple English. I know its not your first language.

Go and read that post 285 again. If you look for '283', of course he did not say 283.

If you had tested the TDI Red Green and compare that with the TDI RT for realtime, you will know that the TDI Red Green which Big E used repaints bars in history . All his training charts are refreshed charts hence the TDI are all repainted.
You expect him to mention the word 'repainting' in post 285. LOL

I help members in different ways. One is to make them learn and question themselves, and from believing that trading 'keep it simple' will make them rich.
"Keep it simple' is what forex schools, coaches, use in their marketing and sales pitch. They want people to look at simple trading systems because it sells more and much easier. Simple trading systems are easy to teach. You are trying to sell your 'keep it simple' belief here. Go and search how many websites and schools are selling Trading Made Simple.

I repeat what I said before. This is the hard truth and is real. Why many traders here will not make it.. Too much time is being spent on TDI and Stochastics, Too little time time on Price Action and Support/Resistance. And no time spend on Money Management, Risk Management for entries and exits, When and How to Let Profits Run. You need to find your WINNING EDGE and the TDI is not in the winning edge equation.
I strongly oppose these personal opinions of you! I have been on this thread since its first post, BigE considered PA, SupRes, MM etc as preconditions which need not to be discussed. He stated often to finish Babypips first when he was asked about these points. And when he asked to be selective in taking a crossing for an entry.

TDI is the heart, the core and the EDGE of this system. The genesis of this indicator starts long before Dan Malone. You completely underestimate its value.

To all TMS traders and readers of this thread. Beware of what you read posted by member name Tekkies. He intentionally uses cut-and- paste of other members posts to convey false messages and also to make his posts sounds like his own. This is dishonest and misleading many people here especially for new readers who do not read and follow this thread on regular basis. Here is a screen shot of Tekkies recent Post#76009 {image} Quoted the words Divergence and then did his usual thing cut-and-paste the OP Big E original posts and make it to sound that...

Beware of trolls like Tekkies.

Well I have to disagree on the statement you made in regards to TDI being core and edge of this system. Indicators will never be a core or an edge of any system, including TDI. Indicators are there for just a psychological support on your decision making process and nothing more.

@Forex37

You can oppose any opinion in public forum. That is your prerogative.

who is Dan Malone?

TDI is just a technical indicator. It is not and EDGE, it does not give any trader an EDGE over the market.
You just mentioned Big E considered PA, Supp/Res, MM, etc. as preconditions before he took a TDI trade, right? That's post #647.
So how can TDI be the EDGE? if there are preconditions.

Babypips.com website does not teach price action trading.
I have been reading Forex Factory long before you .. the james16 Chart thread.
https://www.forexfactory.com/showthread.php?t=2331
that is where I learn most of the price action trading stuff here in FF.

Sorry, when you have mastered PA trading, the TDI is of lesser value. PA will show you the price momentum what the RSI and TDI derive from the price action.

@Tekkies

Please read things properly before you comment. No one is going against Big E, they are showing you how (if you want, as it's your choice) to enhance your trading with the original TMS method at its core.

Take what you want, leave what you want. You are entitled to your own beliefs as is everyone else.

On a separate note, according to the oxford english dictionary the definition of a troll is as follows " [To] make a deliberately provocative online post with the aim of upsetting someone or eliciting an angry response from them."

By that literal definition, you are acting like a troll. I'm sick of reading your complaints, while you add noting to this thread but discontent and provocation.

Stop sewing negative discourse in this thread and add some value.

If you can't do that then you need to think about why you are posting comments the way you are here.

I do not post on any particular thread because I do not trade 1 system alone I trade several systems put together by myself in a way I like to trade, to leave those things off my charts would be dishonest and I do not have time to start my own thread so I do not post, that does not preclude me from commenting when I see something that is not right or if I can answer someone's question if I know (or think I know) the answer. I also do not profess to be an expert I leave that to others. I have been following your posts over the past 3 weeks and no it does not answer that h1 trade - the indisputable fact is the tdi and the price action both said bullish for the time being. If you had said these were daily or weekly trades taken on h1 that is a different thing entirely.

Now I am sure I am going to be told I am being argumentative but I am not I am simply putting across my point of view and if those people do not want to read it, they should not be on a forum, meaning of forum: a meeting or medium where ideas and views on a particular issue can be exchanged.

You have your view and I have mine but I am simply saying if you do not think the tdi has any value you should not be posting on this thread you should start your own thread which by the way, you had said a couple of weeks ago you were going to.

I cannot agree with you: If the TDI serves just as a psychological crutch, why would trading EAs of TMS constructed around this indicator work? And they do! I`m autotrading a few systems successfully via vps unattended - mostly based on TDI or Connor`s RSI.

So entering trades based on TMS and administating those via cavemanager etc, is not the worst way.

Hi Luvene
Just want to point out that price can move 100-300pips opposite of previews day candle in 1day
Its faulty logic to assume what has transpired in 1 day will continue same next.
If this was the case historians and librarians would of been millionaire traders.Its not that simple.Candle location is most important.

Hi Davit, yes you're right about that, sure! But..... When you look at the first Bar color changing HA and if this is the first one accordingly with the crossing of green/red TDI..... As said not all are winners........... Remember the thoughts of Eelfranz that there are many times 8 candles in a row with the same color. And, never the less............ Of course you have to set a stoploss. Use your Stoplos at the last Swing/High and/or SwingLow or use a fixed Stoploss. Again, don't make it too complicated. Use your common sense and look statistically to what happened in the past. Statistically...... how many times..... Does that make sense.
Keep it simple without too many crappy indicators!
